CALS PAKISTAN

2017 is an exciting year for us, as Centres in Pakistan are beginning to offer CALS training.

As in Europe, the US, Australia and New Zealand, we are collaborating with clinicians, nurses and professionals allied to medicine to spread best practice in resuscitation post-cardiac surgery.

We are delighted to announce that these courses will be conducted under the guidance and supervision of Mr Syed Qadri, Consultant Cardiothoracic Surgeon based in the United Kingdom. He is the course director and will be conducting the courses in Pakistan initially, and will train the local teams. If your unit would like to offer a CALS course, please contact him directly.
